Team 133 Captains?

I'm somewhat surprised this hasn't been brought up on the board yet, but:

1) Does anyone know when the team is supposed to announce who the captains for the season will be?

2) Who do you all have pegged as captains for the year? Personally, I think Kovacs is a lock, and then Denard and Roundtree both have great chances. Maybe Demens, too. But if I had to narrow it down to three, I'd go with Denard, Kovacs and Roundtree. Thoughts?

Attention campers. Lunch is cancelled due to lack of hustle. Deal with it.

Given all the interviews he has been doing lately where he keeps talking about "not being the funny guy" and "stepping up as a leader" it wouldn't surprise me if that is what Lewan is hoping for. It wouldn't surprise me to see him chosen.

I'm kinda surprised no one has mentioned Vincent Smith. Hard worker, toughest guy pound for pound, stuck around after RR left despite high chance of decreased playing time, etc.

If I was picking it'd be really tough to pick 2-4 guys from the following 6...

Denard, Smith, Tree, Kovacs, Demens, Lewan

Edit: Totally forgot Roh - who deserves it as much as anyone (Save for maybe Denard and Kovacs) - I'm glad I don't have to figure this out. How does it work? Do players vote? I remember being voted as captain of bball team Sr year in high school, and it was a huge honor. If I was a captain for a M football team, that would be unfathomable.

HAIL.

Methinks. Demens is the leader I think. Very well spoken, a hard worker and leads by example as well (and he's from my hometown, which is rare). Then Kovacs for his kovackian work ethic and commitment. Third is Denard. I really like Mealer too, and his beard.

Could special teams be...Floyd Simmons? He's a senior leader, and special teams stand out. I can't really think of another senior special teams player that would deserve it more. Don't think red shirts usually become captains, but maybe it could happen!
